Is the new set of Dll good for a 9800 GTX ?

[Oktoberfest]

Hello,

I'm thinking about getting the new dlls installed on my IL2, but I want before an advice of someone who knows if that will improve my IL2 program.

Actually, I have problems with the water in perfect mode (glittering of certain areas) and also glittering of certain pieces of my aircraft. So it's idiot but I prefer running at lower settings for the moment.

So, any advice?

Can't help you with some graphical advices tho.

What do you mean by "glittering"? There is some flickering with all nVidiacards 7xxx and higher. You gotta live with that. For a shimmering effect on the water be sure to set the image-quality to "Quality" in your driver-settings. Anything else degrades resolution of reflections drastically, though this was largely reduced with the latest dlls.

I have a 9800 128mb with the R360 (same chipset as the XT). I get black water. You all probably know that by now...
P.S. (back up your original Dlls and run a test if you want to know - should work)

I think Oktoberfest means an nVidia 9800 GTX Avimimus. ATI never produced a GTX version of the 9800 card AFAIK.

I know - it's confusing when they start giving their products almost the same name

The nV 9800 series is very recent Oktoberfest. I doubt many players have it in use. IIRC it was released even after the latest beta dll's - so testing is up to you. I would start with decent 8800 settings, once you have a picture (any) switch to Custom and start hammering away at the settings in il2setup, conf.ini and nV control panel until you have the best result. Trying some different drivers may be helpfull too.Don't ignore the older drivers or NGOHQ/Omega optimized ones either.

Yes, I mean the nVidia 9800 GTX. MaX, I will make my tests then. I will have to check all those details. At the moment I have a curious effect when turning my head with track IR. It's as if half of the screen would turn a bit before the other half. So my configuration is definitely not good for the moment.

I'll see what I can do.
